In this second part of our on-going series with VA’s own Better Beat Beureau (Disko Dave & The Ologist), the two producers break down the “Main Ingredients” of what it takes to cook up an ill beat. From looking for the perfect beat (sample) to finding drums, snares, filthy basslines and more importantly, structure and rhythm. Fuck a poll, both of those beats are dope.
